Dark Pop / Gothic

Chopper – Moongirl (Single Edit)

by Stephan Boissonneault

I’m not the first to say it, but there isn’t enough modern goth rock music coming out anymore. The genre isn’t dead, but it does seem to have retreated into its coffin being held down by the streaming and DSP giants.

But then there’s Chopper, the project of Jonatan K. Magnussen, an artist from Copenhagen, Denmark, whose newest single “Moongirl” feels like a sonic marriage between The Sisters of Mercy, Alice Cooper, and The Cure. A haunting track, with guitar work that screams like a darker Pink Floyd, fantastically styled music video in the graveyard, and Chopper’s shifting vocal techniques, this track is pure darkened ear candy for the next generation of goths. Keep an eye out for Chopper’s forthcoming Shock Pop Vol II EP. But until then, enjoy this absolute treat of a music video.
